2nd south carolina string band - ol' dan tucker lyrics
[verse 1]
i came to town the other night
i heard the noise i saw the fight
the watchman he was a’running around
cried ol’ dan tucker had come to town!
[chorus]
now, get out the way! get out the way!
won’t you get out the way, ol’ dan tucker
you’re too late to get your supper
{verse 2]
well, ol’ dan tucker was a mighty old man
he washed his face in a frying pan
combed his hair with a wagon wheel
and he died with a toothache in his heel
[chorus]
now, get out the way! get out the way!
won’t you get out the way, ol’ dan tucker
you’re too late to get your supper
[verse 3]
well, ol’ dan tucker is back in town
swinging the ladies all round
first to the right, then to the left
then to the gal he liked the best
[chorus]
now, get out the way! get out the way!
won’t you get out the way, ol’ dan tucker
you’re too late to get your supper
[verse 4]
now, ol’ dan tucker is a nice old man
he used to ride a [derby ran?]
sent him whizzing down the hill
if [he hadn’t gone up, he laid there still?]
[chorus]
now, get out the way! get out the way!
won’t you get out the way, ol’ dan tucker
you’re too late to get your supper
[verse 5]
now ol’ dan tucker and i got drunk
fell in the fire, kicked up a chuck
the charcoal got inside his shoe
lord, bless me, honey, i think that’s [just blue?]
[chorus]
now, get out the way! get out the way!
won’t you get out the way, ol’ dan tucker
you’re too late to get your supper
[verse 6]
well i went to town, to buy some goods
i lost myself in a piece a woods
the night was dark, i had to suffer
i froze to the heel of daniel tucker
[chorus]
now, get out the way! get out the way!
won’t you get out the way, ol’ dan tucker
you’re too late to get your supper
[verse 7]
well now, tucker was, a hardened sinner
he never said his grace at dinner
the old sow screamed, the pig did squaw
he ate the whole hog, [teared it all?]
[chorus]
now, get out the way! get out the way!
won’t you get out the way, ol’ dan tucker
you’re too late to get your supper
[verse 8]
and now old dan, he’s a gone sucker
he’s never gonna get back on the supper
old dan, he’s had his last right
his banjo buried by his side
[chorus]
now, get out the way! get out the way!
won’t you get out the way, ol’ dan tucker
you’re too late to get your supper
[verse 1]
well, i came to town the other night
i heard the noise i saw the fight
the watchman he was running around
cried ol’ dan tucker had come to town!
[chorus]
now, get out the way! get out the way!
won’t you get out the way, ol’ dan tucker
you’re too late (late) (late), to get your supper!
